Srimans:

AdiYen has a question on AgamAs. What are pAncharAtra Agama and VaikAsana AgamA?
Are there only these two Agamas? If these are not AgamAs, then what is the
correct classification?
Some temples follow one Versus the other, some follow both. Who wrote these
Agamas?
What are in there? Are these available in book form in simple style so that
adiYen
can understand it with little knowledge?
